KWL Charts (Know, Want to Know, Learned) are a standard resource in many classrooms. While students’ familiarity with them makes them easy to explain and use, it also can become an exercise students no longer really think about as they complete.

The printable chart version included with this lesson takes that idea a step further and is perfect for inquiry and project based learning. It also works well for the “Genius Hour”, “Passion Project” or “20% Learning Projects” that are becoming more popular. The KWHLAQ Chart expands on the three basic questions as follows:

K – What do I know?

W – What do I want to know?

H – How will I find out?

L – What did I learn?

A – What action will I take?

Q – What questions do I still have?

This is a great resource for any classroom!

This product includes 3 different Halloween-themed non-curricular tasks for you to choose from. Have fun with a challenging task or riddle with your students while they get a chance to practice collaboration with lower-stakes tasks.

The tasks have to do with Halloween creatures, haunted houses, and trick-or-treating plans. The math concepts are accessible to most grades but ideal for 3rd through 8th grade. One of the 3 tasks is more mathematically appropriate for 6th-8th grade only.

The files are not designed to be printed (although they could be) but rather to be displayed in the classroom for groups to reference at vertical surfaces.
